linenoise

A lightweight readline-replacement library for Haskell based on the linenoise library. (Not production ready!) See the demo app for usage, or see the climb library for higher-level building blocks for GHCi-like REPLs with colon-commands.

Differences from alternatives

haskeline
- This uses FFI to a minimal C library vs pure Haskell
- This uses standard MTL/Unlift typeclasses vs custom ones.
- This does not require the use of a specific monad transformer.
readline
- This offers a MonadIO/MonadUnliftIO interface vs raw IO.
- This vendors and statically links its underlying library to simplify the build process.
